CHEF JOHN'S STEAK PIZZAIOLA

There are hundreds of ways to make pizzaiola, from versions featuring slowly braised tough cuts of beef to quickly seared tenderloin medallions, like I used here. The one thing most people agree on is that you should, if at all possible, use really fresh, very sweet, vine-ripened tomatoes. Serve on top of toasted bread with mozzarella cheese.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound beef tenderloin steaks, cut into 4 medallions
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
2 teaspoons butter
1 pinch salt
1 cup sliced sweet and hot peppers
4 cloves garlic, crushed
½ cup white wine
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup tomato concasse (see footnote for recipe link)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Season steak medallions with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add steaks and cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Reserve oil in skillet.
  • Place mushrooms and butter into the skillet and season with salt; cook and stir until mushrooms are softened and beginning to brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; add peppers and cook and stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute. Pour in wine and sprinkle in dried oregano. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until the wine is nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir tomato concasse into the mushroom mixture and simmer until tomato is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add fresh oregano, balsamic vinegar, and red pepper flakes; stir to combine. Adjust salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Place steaks back into the skillet with the mushroom mixture and cook until warmed through and cooked to desired doneness, 4 to 10 minutes.

STEAK PIZZAIOLA

Serve this tender, fall-off-the-bone meat with bread, polenta, or sauteed Swiss chard. You can also present it as a "sauce" by shredding the meat, mixing it with the leftover tomatoes from the pan, and tossing with pasta.From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 pounds bone-in chuck steak, or 2 pounds if boneless
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, with juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Season the meat on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat and swirl in the olive oil. Brown the meat on both sides. Remove the meat from the skillet and take the pan off the heat.
  • Stir into the pan the garlic, oregano, thyme, red pepper flakes, tomato paste, and whole tomatoes. Mash up the tomatoes with the back of a spoon, return the meat to the pan, spoon the sauce over it, and cover tightly.
  • Braise in the oven for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook for an additional 30 minutes, until the sauce has thickened up.
